For several weeks each spring, the art of participating FMVA members fills the lower level gallery at Moorhead's Hjemkomst Center—work from arts educators, emerging artists, and established artists. Statements from the artists describe their inspirations and techniques, and a reception offers the public an opportunity to meet and talk with the artists. Participants are members of FMVA, and each submits one work for the show. This show is hosted by the Historical Cultural Society of Clay County.

July 1 through October 31, 2016. Monday-Saturday 9:00am-5:00pm & Sunday 12:00pm-5:00pm FMVA teamed up with the Historical and Cultural Society of Clay County to bring visual artists a challenge like no other for the 7th annual Constraint Show - an art exhibit by visual artists meant for everyone, even those who are visually impaired. What would an exhibit like this look like? Maybe more like feel, hear, sound, or even taste like?  “Touchable:  Celebrate the Senses” will open alongside “A Child In A Strange Country” focusing on Helen Keller and the history of education for people who are blind or visually impaired.
